Very fed up today.
Its so cold and dull here.
I didn't sleep last night and my anxiety has been really bad lately.
I seem to be in a constant state of high alert worrying about the potential benefit changes and all household bills going up in April.
Each time I go to a supermarket everything is going up in price.
I am constantly worrying and its making my health issues and anxiety worse.
I live in a holiday resort and I have agoraphobia.
Soon the tourist season will start and then thousands of random people descend upon us.
It really is most awful and I'm dreading it.
Consequently I cannot enjoy the place I live during the warmer months as I cannot face the crowds of people and I feel so lonely being stuck at home alone.

@Katiedimelow20 have you been able to see a doctor? Most practices now have wellbeing clinics that they can refer you to. They can help with mental health and I'm sure your anxiety and what does sound like panic attacks. I have panic attacks and agoraphobic spells, after my second child was born i needed help to leave the house, i had help from mind, i had a one to one carer she really helped me, im not sure if mind still offer this help, but they may be able to sign post you to other organisations. Ive left my home twice since last year, to meet friends at McDonald's and to go to my granddaughters 1st birthday.. keep on talking about it, don't worry what other people think.
@luvpink and @Amberpearl i think alot of us are feeling scared about these changes to benefits, this government has scared the life out of the vulnerable people in society. When it comes to it I hope people can stand up against their unjustified changes, just like the farmers are doing today, they have parked tractors in a very long line, starting from parliament, protestesting the inheritance tax.

I'm sat here cold with a blanket.
I can't afford to put my gas heating on.
If things carry on like this with everything going up in price a lot of us will really struggle.
Its a constant worry.
Benefits are set to rise by 1.7% I think in April but my rent alone is going up by 2.7%
I'm not entitled to housing benefit and I only get single person council tax discount.

You think it is unfair farmers have to pay inheritance tax? They only have to pay 20%, everyone else would pay 40%.

Another day. I rather prefer not to think about tomorrow. Soon time to go to bed. And if there is no tomorrow I will be at peace. Scared about the future. The scaremongering of the government cutting benefits changing to universal credit etc.. sick of it. Anyway good night. Honestly I can't take the feeling of being always on the edge always scared frightened and depressed.. til tomorrow.

Just awful isn't it.
I know some people say oh try not to worry because no official announcement has been made yet but it is fear of the unknown and we have been living in fear ever since Sunak suggested the pip voucher catalogue nonsense.
A lot of us do worry about it when our very existence depends upon it.
I hope you manage to have a restful night.
Take care.

@Schildpad I'm sorry to hear that you are feeling so down. Ive gone through the UC migration from ESA SG, although I'm not going to say it was easy, it wasn't for me, im mostly through it now and the dread i felt about doing it has lifted, I read up on everything I could, I screenshot pages that I wanted to refer back too, I tried to avoid reading what was said in certain newspaper chats. I called all the help centre's a number of times, you don't always get the correct information from them. Once my journal on UC was up and running I asked questions on everything I didn't understand. I found that the job centre I was allocated were actually very nice and I found them helpful.
If I think back to the dread I felt, when filling out PIP and ESA forms and having the face to face assessments, it was just as anxious a time then, but I got through it and ive got through migration, yes it's not fair we have to keep going through the hoops but we are all going through it, and there is always information and people out there, who can and do help.

@Ranald I don't know enough about the farmer's inheritance tax, to say whether its right or wrong.
I referred to them today, as they are protesting the changes, sticking up for what they believe in, I don't know if they will get the desired outcome they are looking for, but together making a stand and being heard is one step that together they can do.
Without trying to sound political, there is on this site alone, discussions about contacting MPs, councillors, something some people may feel that they can do. There are lots of people who have lots of different opinions, we all have the right to stand up for what we believe in, if we can.
